Light Losses.

The losses in this and Fergus counties
in stock will doubtless foot up much less
than was anticipated for the severe winter
but recently closed. We are Informed by
l.. d. Burt, of the firm Of Klein & Burt,
that out Of 10000 sheep they have lost but
$50. VIM. Mcknight reports that the Nc
Knight and Brodock herds Of cattle on
lower Smith river have met with no losses
whatever. And from many gentlemen we
have recently conyersed with from the
Musselshell and judith ranges it is learn
ed that the losses in those sections, though
large in some places, are far below what
was anticipated, In fact, with a few
ceptions u stockmen have got over the
blues and are preparing for further invest
ments.-ImHchuat.

Of those who are devoted to the cause Of
woman's enfranchisement, favor both Ia
Dor in its struggles for emancipation, and
the temperance reform in its fight for a

A Sort of Theatrical Advertising Fast
Going Out of Use.
The proprietors of the little cigar stores,
beer shops and restaurants, wherein from
week to week are exposed the bewildering
but deceptive Autographs and hangers of the
various city ayhouses, do quite thriving
trade in billboard passes, says the New York
Mail These passes are given them in con-
sideration of the display they make of the
theatrical advertisements. They are sold by
them to newsboys, bootblacks and young
men about town up to the trick of buying
them. As rule they are as good as the ad-
mission tickets purchased at the box Office,
and cost about one-half as much. Some-
times, however, the purchaser gets left, and
such fate was reserved for a Third avenue
elevated railroad guard the other night, who
bought a billboard pass for an east side thea
ter, where young woman was performing
feat known as the sFhumau fly" sct. This
feat consists in walking on a ceiling head
downward, and is accomplished by means of
strong suckers fastened to the shoes. It SO
happened that one of the Autographs repre-
senting the daring act had been left by the
agent of the house in the store where the
railroad man bought his billboard pass
By some mistake the storekeeper hung the
lithograph up the wrong way, representing
the woman walking as human beings gen
orally walk-erect. The agent happened to
see it and of course refused to honor the
tickets left with that storekeeper. The
railroad man had to pay again for his ad-
mission, but he has sworn vengeance against
the storekeeper for swindling him, and now
threatens to do with the cigar man what
the latter should have done with the wo-
man in the lithograph-stand him on his
head

A nramatic Farewell 10 Gayetx.

A New York letter in the Hartford Cour
ant says: In consideration of her gift to the
university the Pope has sent Miss Caldwell
the Golden Rose," an honor she has shared
with one other American lady, Miss Emily
harper of Baltimore. Her good looks and
devotion to society, however, have not pre-
vented the prediction that she will follow
the example of her cousins, the Misses Nc
Larish, the bellies and beauties of Baltimore,
and end her career behind the grating of a
cloister The eldest of this brilliant trio
passed the winter of 1888 in the abandon of
gayety that only southern women know. Her
coming and her goings were chronicled as of
queen. 1 recall her one night as she de-
scended the steps of the great hall where the
most brilliant society in the South held its
assemblage, people focked to the doors and
windows, and the ball room was deserted to
catch glimpse of that stately and exquisite
form, and that divinely lovely face. One
night after ball that winter she bade her
coachman drive her to convent just within
the city's walls. There had been no farewell
to the world, no parting with her importu-
nate lovers. In all her gloss of satin and
glimmer of pearls she went away, and from
that day to this not word has reached them
of the brilliant life that is hidden under the
black veil of a nun. The second and third
sisters followed her example. both taking the
same last dramatic look on life.

ENGLISH PR0TECTIONIsTs.

ENGLISH PROTECTIONISTS.
In the remarkable address made the other
day by Mr.. Adamson, president of the Brit
ish Iron and Steel Institute, he said among
other things that if the imported metal paid
its share toward carrying on the State, plus
the amount necessary for collection, the
British and foreign manufacturer would then
more nearly be on a par. And he contin-
ued: Looking at the matter all around, it
does not appear to me to be a just business
for Englishmen to pay the cost of carrying on
the State for our neighbors on the continent
of America. Presuming that active meas
ures are continued to be taken for the pro-
motion of more technical instruction and
higher education of the youth of our land
and the same paid for by imperial parlia-
ment, what advantage would this confer on
England if the capitalists and far-seeing
manufacturers interpret the signs of the
times and instead of laying out their money
here are induced to invest it in, say, Amer
lea!
This is pretty complete and intelligent
Endorsement of the policy of protection,
which has done SO much for the people of
this country. Quite as notable an endorse
ment of that policy is found in the annual
report of Secretary Pettifer of the British
Workingmen's association, who says: Ihave
once more returned home from the United
States, this being. my third visit, and I
must confess that 1 had been there this time
on my own hook, SO to speak, or in other
words, on my own responsibility and with
my own money. I should have stayed there
altogether, for it seems to me that we have
got a very long and uphill fight before we
shall be able to obtain such alterations in our
fiscal policy as will place the working people
of this country in the advantageous position
of their fellow -toilers across the Atlantic
in fact, have come to the conclusion that
there are only two courses left open to the
laboring classes of Great Britain. One is
to obtain protection at home, the other is to
60 to some English speaking country where
they have got protection.
The free traders of this country who have
been SO fond of telling what free trade has
done and is doing for England will find it
difficult to deal with such utterances as these.

DECORATIVE DONT's.
What to DO and What to Avoid to MAX,
Home Happy.

What to DO and What to Avoid to Make
Home Happy.
Don't hang picture SO that it will be
necessary to mount stepladder to view it.
Hang it so that the center will be about
five feet and half from the floor, little
below the line of vision of person of average
height.
Don't select furniture whose "means of
support" do not appear adequate. Chairs
with spindle legs inclined too far inward or
outward have an apparent tendency toward
disruption and are constant terrors to callers
Straight, substantial legs suggest strength and
inspire confidence.
Don't treat hallway as though it were
dooryard, and ne part of the house proper A
hall should be inviting and hold out TO the
visitor promise of the beauty of the inner
rooms.
Don't put piece of furniture into a room
merely because it is pretty and will fill up.
Every article should have its real or apparent
use; as general thing the necessary pieces
will occupy all the space that should be allot-
ted to furniture.
Don't Permit white marble manteI to dis
figure an otherwise tasteful room Cover it
with a draped mantel board White marble
has suggestion of cemeteries about it. 1t
always looks crude III a drawing room, even in
the form of the finest sculpture.
Don't put paper on the walls of nursery;
it is better to either paint or kalsomine.
Don't have a drawing room 80 filled with
frail and delicate bric-a-brac that the least
movement is fraught with danger of costly
and wholesale breakage. This does not con-
duee to ease.
Don't have dark carpet and walls in room
that is deficient in light. Only apartments
open to the outer light will stand gloomy tones
in decoration.
Don't hang picture from one nail. Aside
from the mere question of safety, the use of
two nails, the cord stretched across them SO
as to come down squarely to the corners of
the frame, has a symmetrical effect and
makes the walls look very much more fin
ished.
Don't have a carpet patterned with gigantic
roses or other actual flowers. They harmonic
with nothing. The colors in a carpet should,
in great measure, complete the color scheme
adopted for the room.
Don't place picture or bit of decora-
ton where it does not serve some artistic
purpose. If picture is intended to be
seen in strong light do not put it in an OBJ
scure corner, and, on the other hand, if it be
painted in high color key, do not bring it
within the direct influence of brilliant sun
burst.
